Abstract:
Infertility is one of the most common diseases in Sudan. This research was done in College of Radiological Sciences and technology (u/S department).
The main objective of this research was to estimate the role of colour Doppler ultrasound (u/s) in evaluating uterine artery blood flow of infertile patients.
In this research 31 female infertile patients were studied, using transabdomenal and color Doppler ultrasound to study the uterine artery Doppler indices pulsatility index, resistive index and peak systolic to end diastolic ratio (RI, PI, PS/ED). These indices were compared relative to patient age, duration of infertility and size of the uterus. These findings were compared with control group.
The researcher concluded that, there is a significant difference in pulsatility index and resistive index (RI, PI) of infertile patients and normal fertile women, but in peak systolic to end diastolic ratio (PS/ED) the difference was in conclusive.
